Europlasma is a global technology leader in innovative nano-coating solutions based on low pressure plasma technology, for which it develops proprietary processes, designs and builds turnkey vacuum plasma treatment equipment and supplies process chemicals.
By adding energy, matter can be transformed from solid to liquid to gas to plasma. In the plasma state the molecules are decomposed into neutral and charged particles that will interact with the surface of the material. Europlasma’s technology creates a stable and effective plasma by an electromagnetic discharge of a process gas at low pressure (and low temperature).
Historically, this technology was mainly used for ultra-fine cleaning, for etching or for physical and chemical activation of surfaces. Europlasma has been among the first to use the technology to apply ultra-thin coatings on surfaces by using more complex process chemicals. This requires a deep knowledge of plasma technology, process chemistry, material sciences and vacuum equipment design.
With low pressure plasma technology, the ultra-thin coating is applied uniformly on complex three-dimensional surfaces, and it is able to penetrate into the core of complex shaped materials or products such as PCB’s, electronic devices, filtration membranes or technical textiles. The unique way in which the coatings are deposited allows to achieve outstanding functional performance. Furthermore these coatings are so thin that they are not visible and do not alter the other characteristics of your products.
Through more than twenty five years of experience with low pressure plasma technology, Europlasma has been able to optimize this process to an industrial scale, unmatched in the industry. Europlasma masters a wide scale of production machines, with plasma chambers from 50 to 2000 liters. Great uniformity is combined with the shortest cycle times in the industry and the machines can be flexibly integrated into the production process. Europlasma also offers a unique line of roll-to-roll coaters for handling flexible circuitry, membranes, fabrics and nonwovens. From very small rolls of specialty materials to large rolls of fabric (width up to 2500 mm), Europlasma has a machine tailored to your needs.
Europlasma holds a portfolio of chemistries, including both fluorochemistries (Nanofics 120 containing PFOA, Nanofics 110 PFOA free) and halogen free chemistries (Nanofics 10 and our unique PlasmaGuard solution for wearables and electronics), or custom design systems.
Our sister company, CPI, is a specialist in high speed atmospheric plasma roll-to-roll solutions for film substrates.
Europlasma has a growing portfolio of patents and patents pending protecting key aspects of both machine and process.
